Former tennis professional Serena Williams announced her retirement in 2022 after around 22 years of playing the sport. She has won 23 singles titles and 14 doubles titles. However, more interestingly, the American icon recently expressed the difficulties she has been facing while working out, and that too without having a ‘championship’ to run behind. Thus reopening a question that many fans hold close to their hearts: will Serena Williams come out of retirement?
The 41-year-old recently took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express her current feelings. She said, “I’m not used to working out with no goal or, to be honest, no championship in my mind. This is super weird.”
As expected, the tweet immediately sparked a lot of excitement among the fans, eliciting a plethora of reactions online.
While the majority of users urged her to come out of retirement, a few even insisted the tennis legend to participate in the 2024 Australian Open. “Australia is right around the corner,” commented a fan under Serena’s tweet. Sharing a wide spectrum of reactions online, here’s what fans have to say:
With that being said, there is no denying the fact that Serena’s training regime is primarily built around tournament requirements, which form the core of her workout. Without a goal, it has been quite difficult for the former World No. 1.

Serena Williams and her family recently welcomed their second child, Adira, and the former world champion has already returned to her workouts. Fans are urging the American to return from retirement, and her husband Alexis Ohanian also leaves a hilarious comment under the tweet.
“So, you wanna go back on tour?” said Alexis. His hilarious comment led to a lot of speculation about Serena’s return to professional tennis.
Serena Williams ended her professional career at the 2022 US Open and has since faced the difficulties of pregnancy. Now the family is happy with their second child, Adira. The 41-year-old has an amazing record at the Australian Open.
She has clinched seven of her 23 titles in Australia and fans are hoping that their idol can return to tennis. With that being said, if she manages to make a return to the grand stage, the fans would be thrilled to watch their role model inspire everyone. It is highly unlikely, and only time will tell if Serena can return. However, one thing is for sure: fans all over the world would love to see her compete again.
